Summary

This isn’t the first time Woody Harrelson and Simu Liu have gotten up close and personal! In this episode, you’ll hear how they worked together in some pretty tight quarters on the upcoming feature film “Last Breath.” Simu tells Woody and Ted about his family’s journey from Harbin, China to Canada, and how he later went from being an unhappy accountant to becoming a Marvel superhero and Ken in “Barbie.” Bonus: Ted brings up Woody’s silent but deadly past.
